Need Help/opinions

whats up guys, im new to the forum here and to diesels all together

what i was wondering...what other supporting mods would i need eg. trans build, injectors, headstuds...the setup i am gettin is as follows

buying a 2010 f-350 king ranch cc/sb in october

the day i order the truck i am ordering
8 inch lift
38 inch tires
afe stage 2 with torque tube
Removed due to rules violation, PLEASE READ THE RULES BEFORE POSTING!
spartan phalanx...most likely going to run the 275 race tune
mbrp smokers stakcs with 6 inch miter cut stacks
spearco intercooler

i heard propane is no good on the 6.4 so thats out...as far as extra power adders i was considering either water/meth or nitrous...would i need to be retuned for either of them?

as i stated above i am new to diesels all together so any help would be GREATLY appreciated...thanks in advance

Drew

I am running the Green drop in filter with the 310hp tune. Works great.
Water meth will be a great option to drop EGT's with the upgraded intercooler.

Propane works on the 6.4. My neighbor has it and his mileage went from about 8 to around 14-15mpg...
